Strange thing - I never got a request to join my allies in a war?

[Wal]

A strange thing happened. I was alliance leader when Spain DoW an ally. Everyone else in my alliance joined the war, but I never got a option to join and was in peace which I didn't see until I had 3 of Spain's provinces under "siege"

[MOD EDIT: use meaningful, descriptive thread titles please]

Perhaps you pressed enter or clicked in the exact place/time as the pop-up appeared?

Nah this happened to me as well (today!), when i was playing as Brandenberg and was head of my alliance. I was in the religion screen iirc at the time. It's bizarre because i was still in my alliance, everyone else had joined the war, i checked the log, and their was no referrence to me accepting or declining, and i waited 3 months to see if i would "auto-refuse" but it never happened. It's good to have autosave on yearly

I checked my log too and no refusal, and I was still leader of alliance. There came like 10 popups at the same time. One of my allies made a DoW on Austrian alliance too. There I got an option to join (which I did).
It ended well, Spain settled with paying 50 gold

I had something similar happen a couple of days ago. I was playing as Venice and had the Ionian Greek nation in my alliance. As the alliance leader I finally managed to negotiate a favourable peace treaty and then found that the Ionian nation was still at war.

I had something similar. When I (Brandenburg) was called to honour my alliance with Poland against Moldavia my other ally Milano wasn't invited. Two times a row.

Did the non-invited countries have any relationships with the countries they would have been at war with if invited? e.g. marriages, vassalizations, military access, etc.? MA shouldn't prevent it; I've gone to war with a country I had MA in as the result of an alliance call (nice to be able to use the supply bonus of the fortress you are sieging).
